Need an operator?

Independent operators, one request.

Post your request online. If our network has an independent operator who fits, is available and provides a TCVT certificate and his own insurance, we will introduce him to you. You make the arrangements directly with him.

Signing up as an operator is always free.

How it works

1

You post a request

Location, date, type of operator and the crane. No need to call; everything goes by e-mail. For urgent requests we respond within 1 hour (06:00-20:00). You receive a confirmation with a cancellation link.

2

We search our network

We check who is available, works nearby and provides the right TCVT certificate. If there is a suitable operator, we put him forward to you (certificates, experience, region). After your approval you receive his name and number.

3

You make the arrangements yourself

You agree rate, working hours and payment directly with the operator. He works as a self-employed professional and invoices you himself.

We put you in contact. You agree rate, working hours, insurance and payment with the operator; we are not a party to that agreement and not an employer or staffing agency. A proposal is no guarantee that someone is always available.

Which operators

All TCVT W4 categories, and also operators for work without TCVT: other machines, and construction staff such as labourers, logistics and site clearers. For every operator we record, per certificate, how much experience he has, from a few days to years, and on which machines.

W4-06 Tower cranefixed and mobile (e.g. Spierings)
W4-01 Mobile cranetelescopic crane, crawler crane
W4-08 Lifting supervisor / riggerand W4-09 construction hook-on worker
W4-07 Telehandlerrotating
W4-02 / W4-03 Foundation machinepiling rig, small and large
W4-04 Truck-mounted loader cranesuitable for lifting from 10 tonne-metres
W4-05 Earthmoving with lifting functionexcavator, loader, mini excavator when lifting from 10 tonne-metres
Without TCVTother machines
Construction stafflabourer, logistics, site clearer

Lifting supervision: in your request, leave the "TCVT required" box ticked, or untick it if your work does not require TCVT. That is your decision. There are riggers with W4-08, hook-on workers with W4-09 and experienced hook-on workers without TCVT (in-company course). Cranes with remote control: please state it, not every operator works with them.

What it costs

Client

2 requests free

Your first 2 requests within 3 months are free; one request may include several people. After that €25 per person sought (excl. VAT), and only if someone starts work for you through us: operator + hook-on worker = €50.

Urgent (today, at night or at the weekend): €65, and only if someone really arrives on site. Urgent requests are not covered by the free requests. For urgent requests we respond within 1 hour, between 06:00 and 20:00.

No prepayment: we start searching right away and only if there is a match will you receive an invoice afterwards (iDEAL or bank transfer, 30 days). If we find nobody, you pay nothing. Cancelling is free until we have proposed an operator; a cancelled request does not count towards your free requests. No subscription, no margin on the operator's hourly rate.

Contact, questions and complaints: by e-mail only, so that everything is on record: info@machinist-nodig.nl. You can submit a complaint within 14 days; we will respond on the merits within 14 days at the latest (general terms and conditions, article 13). There is no prepayment, so there is nothing to refund before you receive an invoice. Is an invoice incorrect? Please let us know.

Operator

Always free

Signing up is free and stays free. You keep your own rate in full, report your own availability and decide for yourself whether to accept a job.

For operators

Signing up takes a few minutes: name, e-mail, region, what you operate and whether you are available now. You can send certificates and experience right away or later by e-mail, at your own pace.

  • You are on the list for free and keep your own rate.
  • You report yourself when you are available or until when your current job runs.
  • Only work in your own region (you state the travel distance in kilometres by road) and on machines you know.
  • Before a first proposal to a client we need a photo or PDF of your TCVT certificate and the policy sheet of your own business liability insurance (AVB). You remain responsible for holding a valid certificate and report an expired certificate immediately.
Sign up

For clients

One day of sickness, a week of holiday or a whole project. We only propose operators who supply their TCVT certificate and their own AVB. You receive the certificate from us; with the name and date of birth shown on it you check it yourself, before the start, in the public TCVT personal register.

  • Request online, confirmation by e-mail, cancel with one click.
  • You see in advance the experience and machines of the proposed operator.
  • Afterwards we briefly ask how it went; anyone who did not satisfy is not proposed again.
Post a request
